Directions

Use Polysorbate 20 as a mild solubilizer and emulsifier in sprays, washes, scrubs, and other personal care formulations to help blend essential or fragrance oils into water-based products. Add during the formulation phase and mix until fully incorporated. Adjust usage as needed—typically 1–5%—to achieve clear, stable blends and uniform fragrance dispersion.
